10 All your works praise you,(A) Lord;
    your faithful people extol(B) you.(C)
11 They tell of the glory of your kingdom(D)
    and speak of your might,(E)
12 so that all people may know of your mighty acts(F)
    and the glorious splendor of your kingdom.(G)
13 Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom,(H)
    and your dominion endures through all generations.

The Lord is trustworthy(I) in all he promises(J)
    and faithful in all he does.[a]

    and lifts up all(L) who are bowed down.(M)
15 The eyes of all look to you,
    and you give them their food(N) at the proper time.
16 You open your hand
    and satisfy the desires(O) of every living thing.

17 The Lord is righteous(P) in all his ways
    and faithful in all he does.(Q)
18 The Lord is near(R) to all who call on him,(S)
    to all who call on him in truth.

  1. Psalm 145:13 One manuscript of the Masoretic Text, Dead Sea Scrolls and Syriac (see also Septuagint); most manuscripts of the Masoretic Text do not have the last two lines of verse 13.

10 All thy works shall praise thee, O Lord; and thy saints shall bless thee.

11 They shall speak of the glory of thy kingdom, and talk of thy power;

12 To make known to the sons of men his mighty acts, and the glorious majesty of his kingdom.

13 Thy kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and thy dominion endureth throughout all generations.

14 The Lord upholdeth all that fall, and raiseth up all those that be bowed down.

15 The eyes of all wait upon thee; and thou givest them their meat in due season.

16 Thou openest thine hand, and satisfiest the desire of every living thing.

17 The Lord is righteous in all his ways, and holy in all his works.

18 The Lord is nigh unto all them that call upon him, to all that call upon him in truth.
